| 00:57.44 | starseeker | tries installing gephi |
| 01:19.37 | starseeker | ``Erik: er, sorry - brlcad had that in if_tk too, should have brought it along |
| 01:20.02 | ``Erik | oh, htere was a fix? heh, I ended up reading the headers *shrug* |
| 01:28.27 | CIA-73 | BRL-CAD: 03starseeker * r38288 10/brlcad/trunk/src/fb/fbthreadtest.c: Put back in Sean's slightly more general #ifdef |
| 01:28.36 | starseeker | ``Erik: no you had it essentially correct |
| 01:28.52 | starseeker | I had it in, deleted it during debugging, and forgot to re-add it for commit |
| 01:29.24 | ``Erik | ah, checked the svn history, just saw the one commit, *shrug* :D |
| 01:29.29 | starseeker | it's dubious whether I should have committed it at all, but I want to be able to easily revert if I spectacularly wipe out |
| 01:29.48 | starseeker | ``Erik: yeah, for that file it's one - it was in the original version of if_tk.c |
| 01:29.57 | starseeker | (probably needs it still, come to think of it...) |
| 01:30.01 | ``Erik | mebbe ya shoulda committed it and just put it in EXTRA_DIST ;D *duck* |
| 01:30.30 | starseeker | ``Erik: maybe, but it's build logic is just involved enough (using Tk, etc.) that the Makefile is convenient |
| 01:30.54 | starseeker | and it's for sure that anything applied in that file had better work generally - that's the whole point |
| 01:31.47 | starseeker | given that the tcl guys' first response to my request for a Tcl C API tutorial for threads was "uh... you sure you want to do that?" this could get interesting |
| 01:32.23 | starseeker | they did confirm that Tk_PhotoPutBlock would be expected to misbehave in a multithreaded context, which was helpful |
| 01:33.07 | ``Erik | python and ruby tend to misbehave in threaded environments (or used to) :/ |
| 01:33.10 | starseeker | and apparently the tcl 8.6 man page for threads now has a basic C example :-P |
| 01:33.24 | ``Erik | hard to bolt it in if it wasn't a priority at the beginning |
| 01:33.59 | starseeker | nods. From what I've seen, a concerted effort was made some time back to make sure the core of Tcl could handle threads, but beyond that you have to watch what you use |
| 01:35.09 | starseeker | I'm sure it can be solved in some fashion, but the end result might very well be worth a Tcl/Tk paper at that conference |
| 01:35.15 | ``Erik | hell, look at how well threads are handled in a very mature and insanely flexible/selfabusive language like lisp |
| 01:36.09 | starseeker | thinks a Tk interactive demo of a 17million triangle M35 without using opengl would do nicely for a conference showstopper... |
| 01:36.32 | ``Erik | or even the inability to find a C implementation that's "right"... wonder what the fate of open solaris will be O.o heh |
| 01:36.45 | starseeker | It's dead, Jim. |
| 01:37.25 | ``Erik | omission from oracles slides about future work is probably a bad source to make that statement from *shrug* the /. headline was... well... /. accurate :D |
| 01:37.28 | starseeker | It never had much life, and Oracle won't see any point to continuing it |
| 01:38.02 | starseeker | it'll become the bottom software layer of the Commercial Oracle Database Solution |
| 01:39.01 | starseeker | yeah, I agree the slashdot article isn't conclusive - but OpenSolaris would need robust support to keep it alive against Linux and *BSD land |
| 01:39.11 | ``Erik | *shrug* mebbe, thought oracle seems to get off on riding the linux name |
| 01:39.13 | starseeker | I just don't see Oracle doing it |
| 01:39.49 | ``Erik | and the sun license isn't liberal enough to let it be adopted *shrug* |
| 01:40.07 | starseeker | oh, I'm sure they'll run on Linux, but their sales guys will just say "well..., Linux is good and all, but if you want a really ROBUST solution you'll need Solaris and SPARC hardware..." |
| 01:40.23 | ``Erik | heh |
| 01:40.36 | ``Erik | really? you think the sales people would actually be honest? :D *duck* |
| 01:40.56 | starseeker | <snort> anybody can be honest if it pays well enough |
| 01:41.14 | starseeker | might be hard for 'em though, I'll grand you that |
| 01:41.20 | starseeker | s/grand/grant |
| 01:42.09 | starseeker | Oracle's after they outfits who wouldn't blink at a new hardware addition - "Oh, we need 30 new boxes for Oracle? Right, just roll that into the bill." |
| 01:43.03 | starseeker | supposes he shouldn't be gleefully waiting for MySQL to wither and have PostgreSQL take over the (non-Oracle) world... |
| 01:43.25 | ``Erik | sun used to make some of the very few machines that'd send something to syslog up the alley 'oh, hey, your memory just went to shit, but it's ok, we're working around it. when you need to, it's the stick in bank 15" or "hey, you just lost a cpu, but it's ok, we're just taking that one out of the scheduler... after you replace it, you need to run this program (or if ya don't care, you can reboot)" |
| 01:43.31 | ``Erik | :D |
| 01:44.03 | starseeker | hehe |
| 01:44.16 | starseeker | now that's hardware |
| 01:44.30 | ``Erik | mysql wins in contrived benchmarks, so stupid people (or people without the desire or ability to learn SQL) will continue to use it beyond its valid niche |
| 01:44.32 | starseeker | "warning - someone just shot out the motherboard with a semi-automatic" |
| 01:44.39 | ``Erik | heh |
| 01:44.54 | ``Erik | on the big ones, domain cards could fry without serious detriment |
| 01:45.04 | ``Erik | but the backplane crapping itself, that was serious stuff |
| 01:45.26 | ``Erik | but we're talking starter kits over a mil at that point |
| 01:45.29 | starseeker | would be interested to see a situation were MySQL is Better Enough to justify its use over Postgres |
| 01:45.59 | ``Erik | in exactly the same place where something like a filesystem is better than SQL :D |
| 01:46.10 | starseeker | heh |
| 01:46.29 | starseeker | sqlite -> Postgres -> Oracle :-) |
| 01:47.32 | starseeker | wanders off |
| 01:47.41 | ``Erik | I've been thinking about migrating some of my software from mysql to sqlite3, but I can't figure out if it can handle my odd requirement of needing multiple procs writing plus one proc reading and writing |

| 03:34.24 | starseeker | watches a slew of java ebuilds install and reflects that he doesn't use many java apps... |
| 03:59.51 | ``Erik | gee, it's almost like java tries to be it's own universe O.o |
| 04:03.12 | starseeker | ``Erik: heh. Oh, beware - I may take a poke at the C++ goblin graph library someday |
| 04:04.34 | ``Erik | don't make me invoke cpan O.o if ya think my macro fu is ugly... *cough* |
| 04:04.36 | starseeker | I doubt it's as nice as graphviz for our purposes, but already having tcl/tk goodies and LGPL licensing... |
| 04:05.12 | starseeker | hey now, we all know Perl was the ultimate answer to the obfuscation contests of yesteryear - no need to prove it :-P |
| 04:06.04 | ``Erik | c++ started out I believe as a preprocessor package, then was re-written as its own preprocessor to produce C... I wonder if there's anything still around that could take our c++ and turn it to C O.o |
| 04:06.30 | ``Erik | <-- also keen on the idea of "fixing" old fortran code via f2c, is twisted like that |
